Nangavaram is 18 kms north west of Tiruchy .It has an ancient Sundareswarar temple and a Pidari temple. It is said that the daughter of a Chola king of Uraiyur was born with the face of a jackal and by her devotion to the lord of this place, she came to have the normal human features. Hence this place is called Mangai-varam ( or) Nangai-varam, whose correct form is Nangavaram. The village is called Arinjigai Sathur vedhimangalam. A stone panel with 24 Jain Theerthangaras is worth visiting here.
